Please consider whether or not the requirement for centers to keep triangular bandages (more than 1, as the "s" implies multiple) in every first aid kit, and activated charcoal in the building is necessary. If so, great. However, if not, please consider removing them from the standards and replacing them with more applicable first aid supplies.
Also,many generic non-antibacterial liquid handsoaps are labeled "keep out of reach of children", while their name brand (and more expensive) equivalents are not. As a result, centers cannot allow children to use these specfic products, even though the ingredients are no different than the name-brand product. If the ingredients are the same, why is one not appropriate for use, but the other is?
